Hmmm. As I understood it, a ban was just that, a ban. No wiggle room. Doesn't that imply that any contributions from a banned individual should be deleted on the spot, and not reinstated?
If people want to argue that a particular user should be unbanned, that's another issue.
I would personally consider that at least disturbing, but more like appalling, if, say, there was a contributor that /contributed/ some nice articles, say, to things related to early quantum physics, Wolfgang Pauli etc. on the, say, Hungarian wikipedia, but for other “contributions” that were inappropriate — and the warnings about those being ignored — they had got banned, then even the actually useful and worthwile articles would have to be deleted, just because the person is incapable of, say, keep themselves on the NPOV fence in regards of religion or something.
See the problem yet, or should I break it into something that is less like Schiller's periods?
